which tells most graphically the
story of the birth of the Christ
Child. A portion of the 2d chap
ter of Matthew was also read.
Prayer followed. Hymn intitled;
‘Go Spread Your Tidings’ Round”

sessions, and all the recipients
were made glad. Miss Minnie

distributing the presents.
Rev. R. P. Harris spoke in
highest terms of the tree and of
M s. Merritt; and said, among
other things, that this token of
love of friends and for one anoth
er was surpassed only by the im
mutable will and love of Almighty
God.
